  • 1/4 cup finely chopped coriander
  • 1 red birdseye chilli (optional), seeded, finely chopped
  • 2 1/2 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1kg Raw Deli Prawns Thawed, peeled

Combine the prawns, oil and Mexican seasoning in a medium bowl. Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook the prawns, turning, for 5 mins or until prawns change colour and curl. Meanwhile, heat the tortillas following packet directions.
